About Tour Guide Menna S.
I’m Menna — a licensed Egyptologist and storyteller who loves turning history into living stories.
For over 10 years, I’ve guided travelers through Egypt’s wonders — from the Great Pyramids and hidden gems of Cairo, to the calm beauty of Alexandria, the peaceful Fayoum Oasis, and the magic of the White Desert.
Every tour I lead is personal, friendly, and full of stories that connect you to Egypt’s heart — its people, culture, and timeless spirit.

“What a pleasant and enriching visit”
We had an excellent day visiting Saqqara and Giza with Me n'a. Her explanations were clear, knowledgeable and always engaging. She took the time to answer our questions and helped us understand the historical and cultural context behind what we were seeing, which made the visit much more meaningful. The day was very well organized, the pace was comfortable thanks to Mahmoud, and she was also very helpful navigating the sites and avoiding the usual tourist hassles. We highly recommend Menna to anyone who wants a deeper and more enjoyable experience of Egypt’s ancient sites.

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words. It truly means a lot to me. I’m very happy that you enjoyed our day exploring Saqqara and Giza together. Sharing the history and stories of these incredible places with such curious and engaged guests always makes the experience special for me as well. I’m also glad that everything went smoothly and that Mahmoud helped make the day comfortable. It was a real pleasure spending the day with you, and I hope the rest of your time in Egypt was just as wonderful. You will always be very welcome back in Egypt, and I hope our paths cross again someday.

“Mena - Fantastic, Superb, Knowledgeable ”
Great two days with the best ever tour guide / Egyptologist. A very knowledgeable and happy lady who taught us a lot, not only historical information but general information about Egypt and especially Cairo. The site visits were well planned. The driver was also very good and the minibus comfortable. Anybody considering arranging a professional and fun guide for Cairo or wider Egypt should definitely, definitely book Mina.

“Very informative and enjoyable day”
A great day although Menna was suddenly not able to take us but arranged for a colleague Mahmoud to substitute for her. Saqqara was awesome and Mahmoud very knowledgeable about it all. Ditto Giza but more tourists there than Saqqara. Totally recommend getting your own guide rather than a group tour or diy. Thanks Menna and Mahmoud

Dear Martin, Thank you so much for your kind review. I’m really happy you enjoyed Saqqara and Giza, and I’m glad Mahmoud took good care of you. Sorry again I couldn’t be there myself, and thank you for your understanding. Wishing you and your wife all the best in your travels. Warm regards, Menna
